Technical Information - The online version does not require any other software to run it. However, there are down-loadable versions that have other requirements.
Description - This application allows the user to create maps. I attempted to create a map of Aiken, SC. The application generated a map with near-by municipalities but labeled Aiken as United States. The user can modify the layers but I did not try that. One can also generate an Illustrator Map and a Postscript Map. However, it is necessary to download the program in order to use those.
Use - I personally did not like a tool that would not label a map correctly. It could be of use to a teacher who is teaching students how to find locations in certain countries. I would not recommend this as it was not useful to me.
